E90 M3 - Brakes

[Chessers]

Morning All,

Pal of mine has just purchased an M3 (E90). Does anyone know if these suffer from the same brake fade issues that the E46 M3 did after some spirited driving?

I upgraded mine with ATE super blue and braided hoses and never had any problems but wondered if the new model was any different?

He isn't going to use it for many track days but does plan to take it to the ring next year.

Any advice appreciated.

Cheers

This is just the post for me, as Im considering v8 M3, and really want to know what owners have felt they need to do given that most owners upgraded E46 M3 so are the oem calipers on the E92 M3 good ? are there any other must do mods to enjoy this car ?

thanks
